One of my friends was with NTTF as a Training officer for 4.5 years. During the training, he enhanced his core strength in tool engineering, shop floor basics, design processes, hydraulics pneumatics, and even robotics engineering.
According to him, the best part of the training was that he got to clear his theoretical knowledge and apply them practically during his training. If your basics are clear and you can express them properly then you will certainly get decent opportunities at the institute.
Currently, he is working with Jindal Steel in a new role. His training from NTTF has helped him prepared for the new challenges that come with the job.
It is suggested not to join NTTF for any course. The reasons are given below –
Doing a PG diploma course in tool design at NTTF is not justified at all and I think you will literally waste your time and money on nothing.
Recently, UGC stated that only Full-time Phd courses will be Valid and distance PhD is no more valid. The new full-time Ph.D. course will be delivered through the New Delhi main Campus of IGNOU. This change in itself has raised the worth and credibility of a Ph.D. from IGNOU. Here are a few Ph.D. programs offered in regular mode by IGNOU
Moreover, IGNOU is the largest open university in the world, so the credibility of any degree from here cannot be doubted. What actually matters is the level of effort you put into research in the concerned field. Try to earn your degree and not just get one.
One of my friends recently graduated from NTTF and he pursued Tool and Die-making course. Here is a detailed outlook about the course to support your question:
Thus to say, play your card right and make an informed decision.
I have friends from NTTF and they did get placed after completing their courses from NTTF. One of my friends got placed even before completing his course. You will receive placement offers if you have the required skills.
Service engineers, automation engineers, manufacturing engineers, inspection engineers, plant head, the floor in-charge, etc. are some of the roles offered at NTTF. In the recent placement, the average and highest CTC offered was 5 LPA and 12 LPA.
Top companies like L&T, Siemens, Tata Motors, FANUC, Tata Steel, Addverb Technology, Gainwell Commosales, Lohia Corp, Schneider Electric and Timken Limited, etc. recruited students from NTTF.
NTTF does offer good opportunities, so securing a decent job offer depends on your ability and skills.
PGDDA by IIIT Bangalore and UpGrad is one of the best online courses for Data Analytics. Here are some reasons why you can consider taking this course-
This is a good course, and I would personally recommend you take it.
Over the years, the cut-off varies a great deal between 115 to 160. It depends on the difficulty level of the paper set. Moreover, your focus should be on the rank rather than the score.
You should be able to obtain a higher rank than others in order to secure admission to the top 3 law schools. The cut-off for CLAT (2015) was 125 whereas for CLAT (2020) was 153. Start working in the right direction and you shall achieve it. Try scoring a 140+, as it will keep you on the safer side.
